OpenSpace: Making Astronomy Accessible for Everyone

Join us on our Facebook Live to learn innovative ways to make astronomy accessible for everyone! We will share a variety of resources, suggestions, and ideas to promote inclusion for people with disabilities in astronomy. From 3D-printed galaxies for blind users to simple outreach considerations anyone can implement, tune in to explore the world of astronomy accessibility. The webcast will be hosted by Anna Voelker, Director of the SciAccess Conference and will feature special guest Tia Bertz, an undergraduate student working with the IDATA project.
